NcLAUGHLIN AND CHAPLIN.

"Bosso McLaughlin's latest programme in
connection with the Brooklyn Mayoraity seems
TO be to make pretencc of virtue and cast
an alluring bait to the Citizens League by
giving the nomination to Controller Chaplin.
The members of the League have already de-
clared themselves, semi officially, as opposed
to the gentleman most talked oil as the prop
able Republican candidate. They seem pain
fully lacking in n sense Of perspective. While
they are outspoken in their opposition to
"bosscs'' and "boss'' rule in politics, they
nevertheless set themselves up as qualified to
Judge and dictate the political action OF all the
respectable voters of their city who do not
bappen to be members of their exclusive body.
Their laundering course two years ago and
their characteristic stubbornness resulted IN
the election OF the Democratic candidate.
This year it is hardly to be doubted that the
SOD which the "Boss' contemplatcs throwing
to them in Dir. Chaplin viii prove eflectual.
But no person Of common sense can fal' 10
sec that neither Mr. Chaplin nor any other man
can secure the Democratic nomination without
giving pledges satisfactory to Mclaughlin ana
his allies II will not do to allege previous
good character. Ample proof Of this is fur
nisbcd in the case of Mayor Whitney, who Is
cmincnIy respectable in his private and bust
ness relations. but who has made miserable
failure as a public officer. No. 1t is as PLAIN
as ANYTHING can be that no one can be nomi-
mated for Mayor of Brooklyn by Democratic
convention who is not 4" Boss" Mclaughlin
man. pledged to do his masters bidding.
The League may be deceived by name and
by high sounding prctensions, but nobody else
will be- The men who compose 1t have not
seen ft to take that modest and retiring atti-
tudc which in view of the Leagues Iamentable
performance in 1885 would have been bccon-
ing. At their annual dinner few months ago
OK Mayor Low gave them some plain talk
which they would have done well to take to
heart. lie pointed out the absufdity OF lew
men attempting TO dictate to the 10000 Re
publican voters of Brooklyn. His good advice
has apparently gone UNDECIDED, and the League
seems to have started out this year with the
in-concealcd purpose Of doing all In Its power
for Mclaughlin and his followers. The Re
publican City Convention can afford To ignore

THE AMERICAN WAY.

The new Railroad Mems Building, which was
opened last night in this city, is particularly
striking and characteristic bcnefaction. BUM
and presented by Mr. Cornelius Vanderbilt Tor
the use and benefit Of the railroad employees
on the New-York Central and other lines, 1t
is remarkable for the liberality both Of conccp-
ton and execution Many rich men IN many
lands have provided various accommodations
for their employees but we do not know OIL an
instance to be compared to this for the spirit
i'm which it has been carried out. IL Is, III 1act'
a building in the construction OF which the
dominant idea is that of excellence. Mr.. Van
dcrbiIt has proceeded on the principle that
nothing is too good for the honest and loyal
NOrkingmen whom he desires to benefit FROM
the foundation to the roof everything is the
best that money could buy. No comfort that
could be secured has been neglected. "A really
magnificent and perfectly equipped clubhouse
is the result, and one which any one, however
fastidious, might be satisfied with. III MIR.
Vanderbilt had been providing for the wants
of company of fellow -millionaires, he might
have built larger house, but he could hardly
have devised more thoroughly appointed one
And herein lies the manifestation of the
American idea. Mr.. Vanderbilt, desiring To
please and increase the comfort of the railroad
men, builds for them and provides for them
much as he would build and provide for him
self The best of everything is not too good
foI them. lie will not offer them anything
less than an edfce fitted in all respects for the
use of gentlemen. Now this is practical Amer
lean libcrality. and it is distinctive National
type In Europe the rich man who contem-
plates benefaction Of the kind sets himself
To harmonic the details with what he regards
as the set life conditions of the poor men who
are to use the building He works down to
them in fact. The American idea IS the re-
verse of this Mr.. Vanderbilt, in presenting
his employees with almost paiatial club
house. implies thereby the belief that there
is no luxury, no excellence Of architecture
decoration or convenience which American
citizens may not aspire to, or which arc to be
considered as out Of their sphere, no matter
how humble their present position. There -
true and sound democracy in the gift and this
aspect of il is one which must not be over
looked. We may be sure, too that the railroad
men themselves will be quick to appreciate the
breadth and dclcacy Of the sentiment embodied
in their handsome clubhouse.

tho Chamber of Commerce and reception at
his hotel. The speech which he made to the
business men was marked by shrcwdncss ana
a pleasant tone of banter that provoked the
best of feeling. He alludcd to the rivalry
between St. Louis and Chicago, and good
naturcdIy blamed the people of st. Louls Tor
the trouble he had been put to in declining
numerous invitations TO visit other towns and
cities. Then he gave his hearers neat thrust
by remarking that nothing he might say III
their praise could equal their own estimate OF
themselves and their achievements In other
respects the speech was in his usual vein, eX-
ccpt for a reference to immigrants with Anar-
chistic tendencies. As St Louis is one Of the
largest cities that his tour embraces, and his
stay there is of some length this is probably inc
most important of the many speeches that Mr.
Cleveland will be called upon to make. Ono
topic of special interest to st. Louis just now
he did not touch upon namely, the encamp-
ment of the Grand Army.

when the question Of continuing the stay OF
